She took a deep breath, and when she opened her eyes again, there was only determination in them.
However, when her gaze touched the close-up photos of the forensic examination on the screen, her pupils couldn’t help but tremble.
Lu Si had silently appeared behind her at some point, his hands resting on her shoulders, as if giving her infinite courage. “Don’t be afraid, I’m here. This is about avenging your mother.”
Mei Shu steadied herself, feeling the continuous warmth emanating from her shoulders. Her fingers slowly touched the mouse, scrolled the wheel, revealing the full view of that photo.
Suddenly seeing the scene of Bai Ling’s death again, Mei Shu still felt a suffocating sensation.
She wasn’t afraid of facing her own mother; she just couldn’t bear the discomfort in her heart when seeing the gruesome scene.
Mei Shu stared blankly at the enlarged photo of her mother on the screen, and tears once again uncontrollably welled up in her eyes.
Just when she was in a daze, a few cold fingers suddenly placed themselves on her hand.
Mei Shu subconsciously turned her head to look and saw that Lu Si had put away his teasing expression, holding her hand solemnly. He helped her move the mouse wheel, scrolling the autopsy report to the end.
“Look here.”
Mei Shu quickly regained her focus and turned to look.
The forensic expert had been very conscientious. Although Bai Ling’s body was severely damaged, he had carefully checked all the wounds on the body, marking the possible causes of each wound and trying to eliminate the possibility of homicide.
But there was one scar labeled as “cause unknown” by the forensic expert.
Mei Shu concentrated and looked according to the position mentioned by the forensic expert, finding her mother’s death photo again.
“Why is there such a small mark here?” Mei Shu frowned.
Just on the remaining intact skin on Bai Ling’s arm, there was a scar resembling a chrysanthemum. Judging by the scabbing, it should have occurred shortly before Bai Ling’s incident.
Mei Shu didn’t know much about this, so she turned to Lu Si and asked, “Do you know how this wound was caused?”
Lu Si nodded, “1 think it was a cigarette butt.”
“A cigarette butt?” Mei Shu looked at the photo again in disbelief.
Before he mentioned it, Mei Shu was completely confused.
But after his reminder, Mei Shu increasingly felt the possibility.
“But how could there be a mark from a cigarette butt on my mother’s body before the incident? Did the police investigate this wound when it happened?” Mei Shu instinctively felt that she had found a crucial piece of evidence.
However, Lu Si regretfully shook his head, “The police believed that the accident at that time had no connection to this mark, so they didn’t waste time specifically investigating it. But I did find some clues from it.”
After saying that, he closed the autopsy report, quickly entered a series of codes, and then brought up a bank statement.
“Surveillance footage may be replaced, but the bills from certain places won’t.” He pointed to a record of a small amount of money transferred on one of the bank cards. “Look, I checked the financial records of that manor and found this.”
“Two hundred yuan transferred, account information Liu Lan, recipient… Zhou Nan?”
Mei Shu read this information subconsciously, then her eyes lit up, “Great! With this information, we can prove that Zhou Nan was indeed at the villa that night!”
“Yes, 1 also had Jiang He make a call and found Liu Lan. Do you want to go meet them together?” Lu Si saw her finally smiling and a hint of a smile appeared on his lips as well.
Mei Shu eagerly nodded, “No time to waste, let’s go now!”
“Okay.” Lu Si stood up, put on his coat, and was about to leave with her.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, F, who had been hiding in the bathroom, suddenly came out. Seeing the two about to leave, a look of grievance immediately appeared on his face. “My good disciple, didn’t you say you came to see the new system 1 made? How come you haven’t even seen me, and you’re going to be taken away by another man?”
Lu Si and F had a deep friendship, and only he dared to speak like this in front of Lu Si.
Mei Shu chuckled and poured tea for him as an apology. “Master, I’ll make sure to find time to accompany you next time. Today, I have something very important to do.”
“Alright, alright. I’ve heard about your matter.” F glanced at Lu Si sideways, enjoying the tea poured by his beloved disciple, “Anyway, no matter what, as long as you can avenge your mother, it’s worth it for Master Si to work hard all night here for you.”
“What are you talking about?” Mei Shu’s confused gaze shifted between the two.
Lu Si instinctively reached out to pull her away.
But F was an old fox, and he saw through Lu Si’s hidden thoughts at a glance. Determined to take credit for him, he said, “You don’t know, last night, Master Si drove all night to my place, saying he knew in advance that there would be no progress at the police station. Unable to bear seeing you anxious, he wanted to investigate personally. Feel his computer; the computer case is still hot. He spent the whole night in front of the screen and found some clues, so he asked me to trick you into coming over!”
Mei Shu was truly shocked this time.
She thought that even if Lu Si wanted to help her, he would assign Jiang He to make the investigation. She didn’t expect Lu Si to personally spend the whole night on the computer..
